Blessings can be a two-way street. You bless someone, and in turn you are blessed. That is what happened with me today.
I went to the church around 9:30am to lend a hand in the office. I helped out with lots of "paper tasks", meaning those tasks, such as cutting, that are time consuming for the administrator when she has so many other things to do. In good form, I came out with a battle scar - a cut on my finger from the big paper cutter :)
That was me being a blessing.
Then, I was blessed.
The lady I was working with asked me if I had my tickets for the upcoming Beth Moore event at our church. I told her that I was getting it on Sunday, because I always forget to bring cash with me. She asked if I would like to help out at the Registration table and in-turn get a free ticket to the event. I was ecstatic! Money is tight these days, so any bit of money I can save is a huge help. Not only do I get to save money, but I get to greet all the women that come to the event! That is something I have always loved to do. I am so excited that I was asked to help out. And, I would have helped out with or without the free ticket. That was just a bonus!
My challenge to you: Be a blessing to someone today.
